What's your dream truck? - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Mayo · 07-29-2013, 09:47 PM

Mine is a patina'd 68 50th Anniversary C10 longbed with buddy buckets, a full Porterbuilt suspension, Accuair e-level, riding on some Delmo specials. I would be fine with a plain old 350 but and LS would be nice. Maybe one day I can own something like that. I already have a set of buddy buckets, now I just need to find the rest of the truck.

dakattack7 · 07-29-2013, 10:30 PM

Wow, this one is hard.. I'd have to say a 68 or 69, 503 light green, 327 or 396 (396 was available in 69 correct?) Ac, power steering and brakes, and just loaded with options, like buckets ect. I almost would want it to look base model though with painted bumpers and caps, and a white roof too, swb. I just don't know! But those are my favorite years, and color, so something a long those lines. There's so many more I want though..

A 67, because it was the first year of second gen, a 68 Short fleet, 68 Short step, a 69-70 swb, i have my 69-70 lwb already, a base model 71-72 swb, a lwb cheyenne super, a pro touring 67 or 68 ( the rest would be factory height and restored/unrestored original) a Swb 4x4, a 71-72 3/4 ton, the list goes on.. I want like 10 of these trucks in my life time! Can't forget a 50th, either short or long, i dont mind. I'd prefer original on all of these, but i definitely want to restore one. (or a few!)

I'm gonna need some garage space.

looking at the step side thread made me think of another, 67-72 (any year) 3/4 ton long bed stepside 4x4 with a 292 /sm465 setup

71veronica · 07-30-2013, 01:17 AM

factory style longhorn 4x4, dana 60 front axle, 502 crate motor t400,205, original style A/C, fully loaded, wood bed, orche and white 2 tone cab lights.

Lou Boffa · 07-30-2013, 12:29 PM

Hmmm. 1970 C10 CST or Custom LWB. Med Bronze-original paint fleetside, 350-- to keep Copperhead company.

**yote1234** · 07-30-2013, 05:38 PM

my dream truck is a 1972,cheyenne, all factory super,short bed, loaded, low miles!
ummmm ..... i already own it! LOL.

**jocko** · 07-30-2013, 06:44 PM

72 Cheyenne Super K20 Custom Camper with tach, tilt, a/c, step bumper, below eyeline mirrors, aux tank, wood bed, cab clearance lights, PO3 caps on stock steelies, 504 medium olive, olive vinyl buckets. That would do just fine. Oh, and a nice vintage functional snow plow. Weird, I know. Wouldn't see much action here in the desert, but when the big one hits, I'll be ready! Ha.

White70C20 · 07-30-2013, 08:39 PM

Lou Boffa · 07-30-2013, 09:21 PM

I can relate. grew up in New York. Live in San Antonio. Still carry chains in my tool box. It snowed here once in the late 80's...10". Had fun pulling people out of ditches. waiting for it happen again....

**Palf70Step** · 07-30-2013, 09:30 PM

I think an in line 250 Clifford manifold and dual carbs. with 5 speed. Short step, 68 GMC from end. Ac. power steering 4-wheel disks. Not positive on seats or wheels, but the above will get me going.

1972RedNeck · 07-30-2013, 09:50 PM

This says it perfectly for me.

You just had to post that didn't you. Let me go down my checklist... yep, yep, yep. My "other" favorite color is THAT. Nice truck.

70c10-08 · 07-30-2013, 10:32 PM

besides the one I'm currently working on either a 1971 c/20 4x4 base ochre 350 4bbl manual steering no tilt power brakes custom camper equipment or the 71 c/10 with like only 2 miles on it at the auction in Peirce, Nebraska

Any 1969 3/4 ton longbed truck, in this order:
Dodge power wagon 440
Chevy (gmc) just like the one I have 350 otherwise bare bones
International harvester - big, heavy, 360
Jeep (which in 69 came with a Buick 350...legendary) I have one of these but it's kinda 3/4 ton-ish but will carry 1 ton...
Ford (unibody might be acceptable) 6 cylinders all in a row
And since I'm not awake from my dream yet I'll throw in a 67 Scott built crew with marmon Harrington drivetrain.
Oh any I still have room for a k30 blazer (69)....
